Methinks this may reach farther than it seems at face value.

Becoming less reactive is one of the most profound and underestimated forms of inner power. It doesn’t mean you’ve stopped caring—it means you’ve started choosing. Instead of allowing every external situation or person to pull you out of yourself, you begin returning home to your center. That’s not apathy. That’s alignment.

When you find yourself constantly triggered, agitated, or pulled into emotional chaos, it’s not because the world is falling apart—it’s because your ego is reaching for control. The ego thrives in reactivity; it feeds off urgency, judgment, and defense. It needs to win, to prove, to protect the image it’s built. But in doing so, it drags you away from your essence, away from the still, wise part of you that knows.

The soul doesn’t react—it responds.
It pauses.
It breathes.
It observes before it acts.
Not because it’s indifferent, but because it honors the impact of its energy.

Reactivity is fast and loud.
Response is quiet and intentional.
One is survival.
The other is sovereignty.

When you move from reactivity to response, you stop allowing circumstances to define your state.
You stop handing your peace to every moment of discomfort.
You no longer make decisions out of wounding, fear, or the need to be right.
You begin to move from truth. From clarity. From depth.

This shift doesn’t just change how you handle conflict—it changes who you are becoming.
It brings peace to your body.
Power to your presence.
And integrity to your path.

Let your stillness speak louder than your reactions.
Let your awareness rise above your triggers.
Because the real power is never in the noise—it’s in your ability to remain rooted while the world tries to pull you into its storms.
-
Where in your life are you being invited to pause, breathe, and respond—rather than react—and how would that change the energy you carry forward?

Closure is overrated.

You don't need any type of closure. For most, it insinuates needing the other person to change their mind about you or some situation so you can reach peace about the situation. This sounds like control instead of peace making.

Negative vibrations are (as frequently mentioned on this page) VERY smart. The thoughts they bring will look wholesome and credible but they're built on a lie. The clue is easy: how does it feel to need closure? If bad, then you're trying to control them.

Real peace is reached without them changing their minds.

Want to know how to change your reality?

Change how you feel and learn to access your deepest beliefs. Not only about the world around you, but about yourSELF. How you see yourself, how you view your worth and your place here.

I’ll tell you this much, you are FAR MORE POWERFUL than most of you think you are. Even those who have some inkling of the true nature of reality (whatever tf that actually is) probably don’t know that you are bringing ALL of your experiences to you.

Now, before you get bent out of shape saying things like “Oh, so it’s my fault I was abused as a child?!” Or “How can you tell me that I wanted something bad to happen to me?”

Please just listen. Without that reactive part of the brain kicking in. Btw - it kicks in to keep you small and to keep you from figuring out who the fuck you are.

YOU
CONTROL
YOUR
LIFE.

Yep. It’s a movie alright and it’s playing out in front of your eyes every freaking second. Yes, we have all been manipulated and conditioned to think and believe certain things about ourselves, about the world around us, about the nature of reality. But most of it is wrong.

Everything, everything, everything begins (and ends) within You. You are the Alpha and the Omega of your life.

Do I blaspheme? Certainly there are those who would swear that I do, but those same people are caught in the web of lies that tells them someone / something else is in charge. And in that very act of believing that one lie, they lose the ability to comprehend what is going on here.

You believe you deserve x, y or z at a fundamental level? Then that’s what you get. Want something different? Then you have to change what you believe INTERNALLY before anything can change Externally.

And here’s the kicker, when you are actually able to change things within yourself, you WILL see those changes reflected in the external, physical world that you experience.
There is no other way.
This IS what happens.

So, you can keep looking to other people, entities, and institutions to tell you what you “deserve” or you can reach deep inside yourself and examine your beliefs and ask yourself if they’re True. Do they make sense to you? Or are you operating under old, false assumptions about who and what you are?

I think the time is coming where all these old paradigms are going to completely crumble. And they’re going to crumble because we are going to Show the People how things ACTUALLY WORK and blow it all out of the water.

You in?

In Love,
TR ✨💕✨

The truth is ... I wrestled with too much guilt the first time I walked away. So when I was taught how to let go and forgive, I thought that meant excusing her abuse. I let her back in.

For years it was subtle. Her dysfunction toed the lines. She had learned what to direct my way, and what not to. And I lived far enough away to feel less affected.

It took a tragedy and enmeshment to get close enough to see that the only thing that had ever really changed.... Was me.

I had changed.
I had found my way to real love. To real support. To real healing.
I had broken the generational pattern.

I knew I didn't deserve what she was doing.
I knew nothing I ever did would be enough.
She required my silence to hold together her delusions.

I was done staying silent.
I was done crying in the dark wondering where all the pain came from.
The fog had cleared and I could see how it all made sense. How I made sense. I finally understood how and why I became the wife, mother and person I am.

I didn't need to be the perfect daughter anymore.

I was done making excuses for her.
I was done trying to help her see reason when she was on her abuse spree.
I was done being her "guru" when she needed answers.
I was done being her "dolly" when she needed control or credit.

I stopped being her supply and have been happier, more free to be the good hearted person I am every day since.
